Second Form Latin class update - November 14

In today's class we learned about prepositions that take the ablative case. The students need to be sure to memorize not only the meaning of the preposition but the governing case.

the text book pages 30-31

Workbook

Notecards
+ derivatives

Write two English sentences with ablative phrases and then translate them into
Latin.(try to include personal
pronouns, newer vocabulary, and have them be complex sentences that might also
include genitive and dative forms)

Translate the following sentence into Latin: Your sisters had given a letter to the man in front of the gate.

Don't forget that your write up about the Roman banquet is due next week!
